Mumbai Indians bought this explosive batsman of KKR

South African batsman Quinton de Kock will play for the Indian Premier League (IPL) team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the IPL 2025. On the other hand, the Mumbai Indians have acquired Quinton de Kock for Major League Cricket (MLC). He will be playing for the MI New York team in the next edition of the MLC.

Aside from de Kock, South African all-rounder George Linde and Afghanistan fast bowler Naveen Ul Haq will be joining MI New York in the next edition of Major League Cricket. Linde played outstandingly in the SA20 League and was a key contributor to MI Cape Town's first title.

Meanwhile, fast bowler Naveen Ul Haq will leave Texas Super Kings and will play for MI New York. MI New York will retain its star players as well, as it signed up Kieron Pollard, Nicholas Pooran, Trent Boult, and Rashid Khan. MI New York will go into the field with its balanced team with the goal of winning the title in the next year.

If we talk about Quinton de Kock, he has been a part of the Mumbai Indians franchise before. From 2019 to 2021, he played for Mumbai Indians and performed brilliantly. He was the third-highest run-scorer in the 2019 season, where he scored 529 runs in 16 matches. During this, his strike rate was 132.

Quinton de Kock is currently playing in IPL 2025 and has scored 103 runs in 4 matches so far. However, his performance has been up and down. He could score only 1-1 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians, while 4 runs came off his bat against Royal Challengers Bangalore. However, he batted brilliantly against Rajasthan Royals and scored an unbeaten 97 runs. KKR will hope that de Kock's bat will perform well in the upcoming matches and he will maintain his form.
